Smile Hub Dental Clinic is a specialist orthodontic and comprehensive dental clinic located in the Ari district of Bangkok, Thailand, steps from the BTS Ari-Sanam Pao station. The clinic was founded around a single defining credential: its lead orthodontist, Dr. Bhudsadee Saenghirunvattana, is a board-certified member of the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO), one of the most rigorous orthodontic certifications in the world and exceptionally rare among Bangkok dental clinics. With over 1,000 cases treated across Thai and international patients, Smile Hub combines American-standard orthodontic expertise with a fully equipped multidisciplinary team covering oral surgery, aesthetic restorative dentistry, and implants.
Why Choose Smile Hub Dental Clinic
Smile Hub's core distinction is its American Board of Orthodontics certification, which requires passing both a written and clinical case examination and is held by fewer than 40% of practicing orthodontists even in the United States. Dr. Bhudsadee graduated as valedictorian with a Gold Medal and First Class Honors from Chulalongkorn University before completing her MS in Orthodontics at Saint Louis University in the USA, making her academic and clinical background verifiable at the highest level. The clinic holds Invisalign Platinum Provider status, and a treatment case by Dr. Bhudsadee has been published in the Invisalign Global Gallery, a peer recognition reserved for exceptional clinical outcomes. For patients who want orthodontic treatment under a dentist whose credentials are independently certified to American standards, Smile Hub is among a small number of options in Thailand.
Treatments and Specialties
Orthodontics is the clinic's primary specialty, offered across all age groups and complexity levels. Invisalign clear aligners are a flagship service, with Platinum Provider volume reflecting significant case experience. Metal and ceramic braces, including Damon self-ligating brackets for faster tooth movement with fewer adjustments, are available for adults and teenagers. Interceptive orthodontics for children from age 7 addresses developing bite problems early before they require more complex correction. For completed orthodontic cases, both clear (Vivera) retainers and fixed (bonded) retainers are provided. Beyond orthodontics, the clinic offers porcelain veneers, dental implants, composite fillings, teeth whitening, resin infiltration for white spot lesion treatment, and oral and maxillofacial surgery including surgical extractions and crown lengthening procedures.
Team and Credentials
Lead orthodontist Dr. Bhudsadee Saenghirunvattana (Dr. Ying) holds her DDS with Gold Medal honors from Chulalongkorn University, an MS in Orthodontics and Certificate in Orthodontics from Saint Louis University (USA), a cleft lip and palate fellowship from Cardinal Glennon Children's Hospital (USA), and ABO board certification. She is a member of both the American Association of Orthodontists and the Thai Association of Orthodontists, and serves as adjunct faculty in orthodontics at Walailak University. Supporting the clinic are Dr. Posathorn Chantadansuwan (Thai Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, adjunct faculty at Chulalongkorn University) and Dr. Prapaphan Jaikla (MSc in Esthetic Restorative and Implant Dentistry from Chulalongkorn University, with a preceptorship at UCLA School of Dentistry), ensuring patients have access to specialist-level care across all treatment disciplines.
Facilities and Technology
The clinic uses a Carestream digital X-ray system built to US healthcare standards, alongside a Trios 3D intraoral scanner for impression-free digital records, precise treatment planning, and aligner fabrication workflows. Sterilization and infection control follow hospital-grade protocols, with regular equipment audits. The clinic environment is designed to be calm and relaxed, with private parking available on site.
International Patient Services
Smile Hub's team is fully fluent in English and Thai, and the clinic has a documented track record of treating both Thai and international patients across more than 1,000 cases. The orthodontic treatment planning process uses digital imaging and 3D scanning that supports remote pre-consultation and progress sharing, making it practical for expatriates living in Bangkok or visitors managing multi-visit orthodontic treatment during extended stays. The Ari location is particularly convenient for international residents in the Phahon Yothin, Saphan Khwai, and Chatuchak corridors.
Location and Access
Smile Hub Dental Clinic is situated in the Ari district of Phaya Thai, Bangkok, Thailand, directly accessible from the BTS Skytrain at Ari or Sanam Pao stations on the Sukhumvit line. On-site parking is available for patients traveling by car. The Ari neighborhood is a well-established residential and dining district favored by Bangkok's expatriate community, approximately 25 to 30 minutes from Suvarnabhumi International Airport by expressway.
